Kyoka enhanced several siege engines, and Iseki was charged to protect a ballista. She fought against ironclad and elephant-men Destroyers, until the machine was destroyed by a tiger-like shapeshifter. Benjiro appeared and called it Rakshasa, the Rakshasa General. They engaged in personal combat, which ended when Benjiro wounded with an ivory dagger the demon. Benjiro's wounds were severe and Kyoka ordered to take him from the battlefield. Iseki joined with the other Elite Guard pulling at their lord, leaving the battle. [2]
